Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study aimed at developing an estimation system of the baroreflex function, which can be used in daily life using the photoplethysmogram based on dynamics between blood pressure and heart rate. First, it was revealed that two indices, i.e., CVRR defined as the standard deviation of heart rate normalized by its mean value and μPA defined as the natural logarithm of the ratio of low frequency components to high frequency components of the pulse wave amplitude, have high discrimination ability and high reproducibility. Secondly, it was shown that a subject’s age can be estimated with these two indices with the correlation coefficient of 0.774. Finally, it was suggested that the baroreflex function can be estimated by processing the video images of a human body taken with an ordinary video camera.
